Hi all I have a station Focus 2005B, the boot opening switch stopped
working.
I can still open it with the "radiokey".

Its an electric switch with rubber sealing.
What problem has the switch, is it water leaking in and then freezes,
or are the switches of poor quality ?

Yes, its a water ingress issue. Its a known problem and my own 2005
model had the switch replaced under warranty.
